Breaking Free From My Ex (Grace and Antonio) novel Chapter 235

Chapter 235

Alan watched the resolute back of Julian as he got into the car, gritting his teeth and sighing.

He thought, “The boss can’t win his ex–wite back, so he takes it out on his weak, pitiful, and helpless little assistant. What bad luck!

Once the new drug developed by Apex Riotech was successfully researched, it would move to clinical trials, and during this period, Rosalie would have little to do.

As for her own research institute, with Eden keeping an eye on things, she felt more at ease.

That day, as she finished her class, she received a call from Edward. “Rosalie, it’s been a while since we saw each other. Do you have time today? I need to talk to you about something important”

Edward’s tone sounded no different than usual, but Rosalie could still detect a hint of smugness and calculation hidden in his voice.

Rosalie lowered her gaze, calculating the days. Her birthday was approaching, and Edward was probably eager to get those shares. “Sure, how about we meet at the cafe near the back gate of Hawthorne University in half an hour?”

After hanging up, she got up and left the office.

As soon as she left, the other lecturers who had stayed behind in the office began whispering.

“The person in that post must be Ms. Talley, right? This is really shocking. Her mother had an affair and gave birth to her, then her adoptive father set aside his past grudges to raise her. How could she still go and suppress her adoptive father’s own daughter?”

“Exactly, someone like that, with no moral compass, is really fit to be a teacher at our university?”

“She’s only twenty, yet has such achievements. Could it be that those papers published under her name were actually written by someone else?”

“I heard she never even took the exam. How could she write such papers? There’s a good chance someone else wrote them for her.”

“She looks all flashy, clearly not a good person. People like her can’t focus on academics. She probably takes after her biological mother, seducing

men.

“That Ms. Graham is really pitiful. Not only did she lose her father to her, but now she has to deal with her as well.”

These few people were discussing Rosalie so heatedly, throwing every kind of offensive label at her, their disdain and mockery totally unmasked.

“We don’t even know if that post on the forum is true, so isn’t it a bit wrong to talk about her like this?” A gentle female voice interrupted their conversation, clearly expressing disapproval.

When they saw who was standing at the door, they immediately fell silent.

It was Norah Byers, the youngest professor at Hawthorne University and the daughter in law of Dustin Byers. As junior lecturers, they certainly didn’t want to offend her.
